e260 will not turn on, key locked, system shutdown

thats what the screen says. any ideas?

The Hold button is on. Slide it so you don’t see orange. 

I have no idea why SanDisk didn’t make the screen just say “Hold” rather than that alarming message.

I feel like an ■■■■■.  At least it will come on now but it says no partions found.  Any other ideas?

Also, it has Rockbox and I would like to uninstall it.  Where do I find the root file and the uninstaller?

RTFM.
